So I deactivated the plugins. One at a time and retested and retested with both unplugged and it still wouldn’t post a new topic from the “home” page of the forum.

This still only appears to be an issue of posting from the home page? Is it possible that the “add new topic” link on the home page is tied to a forum that doesn’t exist anymore?

How does bbpress decide which forum to put a new topic into when it is started from the home page? Does it give you a drop down box to pick the forum?

thanks.

I cannot access my admin since I turned on integration with wordpress. I have the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress. Everything worked great until I turned on integration and now I can’t get to the admin area at all. It just redirects me back to the main bbpress page.

anyone know how to fix this?

Or can someone tell me how to manually shut down integration in the files without admin access?

When trying to post I get this message:

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘post_title’ in ‘field list’]

UPDATE bb_posts SET post_title=’Testy mctest test’ WHERE post_id=’11

I am using the wordpress database (different prefix for bb stuff) but there doesn’t seem to be a post_title column, here’s the output from mysql:

mysql> describe bb_posts;

I have looked around, but can’t seem to find anything about it on here. The forum/topic actually shows up when I go back to the page, but this is rather inconvenient. Thanks to anyone willing to help out with this.

WP version = 2.51

MySQL version = Server version: 5.0.45-Debian_1ubuntu3.3-log Debian etch distribution

bbPress version = latest (just got it 3 or 4 days ago) so 0.9.0.2

Thanks,

-Scott.

It would be a good idea to remove the plugins and retest. Deciding how big an issue it is is up to you.

[bboysmaster]

Thanks for the testing. Really appreciate it. I check with the hosting and apperently they have problem with spammer before. That probably the reason why the mail goes into spam in yahoo and hotmail and why it took so long to send the mail. I’ll already delete your testing user. Thx again

[Krystian]

Well, I have already the Latest Discussions in the WordPress’s sidebar (with a plugin).

But now that you say that, my next objective is to put the latest posts from WordPress in the BBpress’s sidebar. RSS is a good option I can use to do it. I’m going to find how after this.

Thanks for your opinion chrishajer.

[garyditsch]

Well, I did test bbpress before I used the plugins and everything appeared to work. But I’m not sure if I tested that specific function?

Would it be a good idea to remove the plugins and retest, then set up the plugins again?

I’m trying to decide how big an issue this is?

[chrishajer]

How about using an RSS widget in WordPress and importing the latest discussions feed URL there?

[Krystian]

Hi.

First of all, thanks a ton for all the hard work that you guys have done making our live easier. I apologies if there is other discussion about this issue (I did a search and didn’t find an answer).

I’m integrating my WordPress blog with BBpress forums and I would like to have the Latest Discussions list in the sidebar for all pages. I already put it in the blog with a WP pluging, now I’m trying to put it in the forum.

I tried copy and paste the code from front-page.php to sidebar.php. It works fine when I’m in the front page, but disappears when I enter in a topic or other page.

So, could you give me a clue, a code or a pluging I can use to have this done???

Any help is appreciate. Thanks.

I have heard of WordPress widgets being used to show the latest bbPress entries in a blog, but nothing I know of that will create a new entry in bbPress from an RSS feed.

Could you use bbSync to follow the RSS items that are imported into WordPress to create the new bbPress topics?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbsync/

Or, would RSS2HTML help at all (it wouldn’t make new topics in bbPress)?

hey guys, how can i add a sidebar (left or right) where i can put the latests comments, links, etc?

this is a example of how it has to look like:

the red squares are the sidebars i would like to add.

[chrishajer]

You want the Human Test plugin by _ck_:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/human-test/

[chrishajer]

I’m not sure, which is why I said “I think.”

Take a look at the user tables and see if there is something there that will affect logins. I’m quite possibly wrong. You could also try a test installation using the same procedure you’ve already used, but add the shared user table, and see what happens.

[pokerlover12]

it seems like wordpress deleted the post slug function in the latest version of wordpress?

[pokerlover12]

i feel a bit retarded now but i dont get it…

i have the latest version of wordpress but still i cant find anything called slug when i create a new page… i still dont know how to link the forum to my wordpress site…

[bramruiter]

Sorry, I don’t check this forum daily, so here’s a late answer:

1. From what I know, it has always been like this. It’s only when I perform a search.

2. The version is bbPress 0.9.0.2 and it was installed somewhere between june 26 and june 31.

3. I didn’t. I only screwed around with the template files.

4. No, they did no update or change whatsoever.

5. Like I said, it was there before the plug-ins, but here’s the list.

Private Forums, BBPress Private Messaging (not working), Post Count Plus – Dynamic.Titles & More!, Akismet, Avatar, Last-Post, Limit Latest Discussion, Bozo Users, BBcode Lite, Move It, Quote, Simple Onlinelist, Allow Images, Human Test for bbPress & Front Page Topics.

6. The second error appears only when someone perform a search. The first error is only noted in the admin area, in the first tab, beneath ‘User Registrations’.

7. Yes. It does happen.

The MySQL version is 3.23.58.

I’m not a big guy when it comes to coding/scripting, so I have no idea what these errors mean. I’m glad somebody wants to help.

[bo-fiddlesticks]

Unfortunately, Detective’s solution doesn’t work with the latest versions. I’m experiencing the same issues (integrated scenario):

User registers on bbpress and logs in there

User can acces the WP Site Admin section, but it says: Welcome, . (a space instead of the user name)

User comments are registered as ‘Anonymous’

I noticed the only way to fix this is to go to WP user management panel, editing and saving the user.

So the user has to be actively (and manually ) updated to have his name listed under his comments.

I haven’t found any way to avoid this, but if anyone can I’d be much abliged!

[lazy79]

Since the latest Trunk changes (Changeset 8069) in WordPress Core, the bbPress Login (if shared with WordPress) is not working anymore.

I think its because of the logged_in cookie, isn`t it?

I know, trunk.. but 2.5.x will sure come soon

Have a nice day

Hello,

I have successfully installed and integrated my wordpress 2.5.1 with BBpress latest version today.

WP is at http://calcuttatube.com

BBpress: http://calcuttatube.com/forum

Everything looks good. However, I was wondering if there is any way to post images. The Image attachment plugin says it only works up to BBpress .7 version.

Any help/suggestion?

[dvdvideosoft]

After upgrading to the latest engine (0.9.0.2) it logs out automatically I close the browser.

So I have to type my name and password each time I visit my forum.

How can I make it to remember me?

With a previous version it remembered me, and did not ask to log in each time I closed and opened the browser window.

[dailytestimony]

I just installed bb press at dailytestimony.net/forums with the latest stable version of WPMU in the root directory. When I goto a page such as dailytestimony.net/forums/profile/user I get the main blogs 404 error page. Do I need something in a .htaccess file or something?

EDIT: I get it with trying to view forums too, I am using name based permalinks.

EDIT2: Ok it seems the answer is simple I just needed to RTD (Read The Documentation), Options +MultiViews

<rant>IDK why they just couldn’t distribute a .htaccess file with that line with bbpress. Save people the trouble because they mention it in the documentation here but at the verry least it should like to the documentation where you set permalink options. </rant>

[dailytestimony]

I have a slightly modified version of a GPL’ed wordpress theme I use on my wordpress MU site dailytestimony.net

I want to add support forums an bbpress appears to be my best option however I need to intergrate bbpress into the site visually.

I would like to keep the header as close as possible including links to pages, ect. In the middle I want content to the left, tags to the right, and a simple footer to match the theme.

I am not sure what something like this goes for, but I’m hoping to barter for the work. The site this is designed for has ad space for a button in te admin panel footer I could trade for the theme or we can discuss other deals.

If you would be up for it shoot me an email support (a) (t) dailytestimony.net

For 3, from the Genealogías theme:

function gs_topic_forum_link() {

global $topic;

if ($topic) {

echo '<a href="' . get_forum_link($topic->forum_id) . '">' . get_forum_name($topic->forum_id) . '</a>';



}

}

For the private forums, i do the following (considering only one private forum, having id 22):

add_filter('get_posts_where', 'ryuuko_staff_where_posts');



function ryuuko_staff_where_posts($where) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$where .= " AND p.forum_id <> '22' ";

}

return $where;

}



add_filter('get_topics_where', 'ryuuko_staff_where_topics');

function ryuuko_staff_where_topics($where) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$where .= " AND t.forum_id <> '22' ";

}

return $where;

}



add_filter('get_forums', 'ryuuko_staff_forums');

function ryuuko_staff_forums($forums) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$forum_key = -1;

foreach ($forums as $key => $forum)

if (intval($forum->forum_id) == 22) {

$forum_key = $key;

break;

}

unset($forums[$key]);

}

return $forums;

}



add_action('bb_forum.php_pre_db', 'ryuuko_forum_redirect');

function ryuuko_forum_redirect($forum_id) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

if ($forum_id == 22)

bb_die("You can't see this!");

}

}

[sachrilege]

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to do 3 things.

1. I want posts inactive longer then a set time to not be propagated to the Latest Discussions on the forum Index.

2. I want hidden private forums to not show up on the Latest Discussion list unless they would normally be allowed to see it.

3. I want the forum name to show up in another column in the Latest Discussion list.

I’m using the Private Forums plug-in, and Latest Discussion is only visible on my site from bbpress/index.

For 1. I found a plug-in but it’s no longer supported and I couldn’t clean up the Syntax error myself.

For 2 I can find nothing.

For 3 using another forum post I’ve already edited my templates to include the extra column and I almost see how to do it myself, but I can’t see where to get the name of the forum from the topic.

As always, thank you for whatever help you can offer.
